Creamy Avocado Zucchini Noodles

2

A really simple and yummy recipe that makes you feel good after you’ve eaten it. Lots of nutrients and vitamins. The main point in this recipe though is NOT to overcook your zucchini noodles. If you do, they will turn out super limp and sloppy. All it takes is a few turns in the pan and remove them promptly. You basically want to coat them well with the butter (or you can use olive oil) and then get them out.

The Avocado Sauce is basically was levels up this dish and you are not only limited to making it with zoodles. This sauce works amazing with regular pasta of your choice. Super refreshing!
